Kepler and Warm-Spitzer occultations measured for Kepler-5b and Kepler-6b compared to hot-Jupiter atmospheric models (Madhusudhan & Seager 2009). The black points associated with their 1σ error bars are the measurements. The solid lines correspond to the best-fit models. The green and red points (without error bars) are the bandpass-integrated model values. The dashed line show blackbody ratios for Warm-Spitzer measurements at various temperatures (see details in Section 4.2). The insets are magnifications of the optical region of the spectra to reveal the Kepler measurements.
